From Pumpkins to Peppermint
Your guide to that sweet spot between fall and full-on holiday cheer
From Pumpkins to Peppermint is our favorite kind of season — that magical mix of cozy flannels, twinkle lights, and weekends that smell like cider and pine. Around every corner, there’s a market to wander, a tree to light, or a vineyard to toast the season. So grab your scarf, make a plan, and let’s celebrate everything this sweet stretch between fall and full-on holiday cheer has to offer along The Loop. Events are arranged chronologically to help you map out your season.
